Abstract
"There is now an emerging body of literature on screen capture technology (SCT) as a means for providing writing feedback (fb) to students. Much of it focuses on how/why to use it and students’ perceptions/attitudes about it (e.g., Edwards, Dujardin and Williams, 2012; Jackson-Vincelette and Bostic, 2013; Séror, 2012). At this point what is needed are empirical studies on how students manage/respond to SCTfb and whether used as formative writing assessment it results in changes in student writing. The study aimed to describe how the study participants, students in an ELT graduate program, actually dealt with SCTfb via think-aloud protocol interviews and compared their traditional ways of receiving feedback to the use of SCTfb. The research questions are RQ1- How do the students manage the SCTfb they received for selected portions of their thesis document? RQ2 In what ways is their management of the SCTfb different from their management of their more customary forms of writing feedback."
